Bus Driver Extraordinaire!!!!!

On Thursday and Friday I drove the school bus. By Friday afternoon the lady from the bus company was calling here to see if I would drive the other bus route full time! I told her I could drive 7 of 9 days but because Chris worked day shift on some days I needed to stay home with the kids. She asked if I would drive the bus full time if they put a seatbelt in the bus so I could put the baby's carseat in there. I said sure. So today I took all three kids on my new bus route! Really defines bring your kids to work day!!!!

This afternoon I will take Zach up to the clinic and have his stitches removed! The little ape jumped off the end of the couch and went head first into the tv stand. He is the first one of the kids to have stitches. Three of them in his forehead! I am honestly surprised we made it this far without him having stitches!

We got our notice yesterday that we are definately moving toGolden. So now we are just finishing up with meeting the conditions on the house. We have to get our mortgage approved from the bank and we have the house inspector going over this afternoon! It seems so wierd knowing that we are going to own a house! Ahhhh time to grow up I guess! LOL

It has been nice the last few days here so the kids nad I have been spending as much time as possible outside. So you can imagine my disappointment when we woke up this morning and it was 25 below!

Last week at the doctor I got to hear the baby's heartbeat! No matter how many times your preggo that is still the coolest thing to hear it the first time!

Well maybe I will go and attempt to strighten around some of the junk in the basement - it is a never ending chore!!!
Talk later.

The Readers Digest Version of the Last Two Months!

So, no excuses! I haven't been on here in ages because I have been super crazy busy! Here is a recap of the last two months, just in case anyone cares!

Last time I wrote was just after the halloween blow up. My arm has healed up nicely thank you.

Dani has been loving her playschool program. Zach has been spending a lot more time with me on the couch! LOL! Just kidding - he is getting a lot more one on one time with Chris and I since Dani started school. Ryley is almost walking - the little creature can sure climb!

In November I took my first aid instructors course. All I have to do now is teach a full standard course to finish the requirements for the course. That will be sometime this January. The day we left for holidays I went and did my road test for the school bus - ya ya ya quit laughing! I passed!

We went on holidays the beginning of December. Drove down to Calgary where we met my parents and Chris' parents. The kids went with Chris' parents back to their place and my parents and Chris and I went on to Costa Rica for two weeks. There we did some canopy tours, rock climbing, tarzan swinging in a canyon, and jumping into the bottom of the 10 foot waterfall. We also went to the arenal volcano and the tabacon hotsprings. One of our excursions also included a trip to Nicaragua. It was amazing!!!!

We came back to Canada on the 22. We went to Chris' parents house where we spent christmas with his family. Then we spent boxing day with my family. It was pretty neat to see all my neices and nephews and our kids together.

We left the Valley on the 28 and headed up to Golden. Oh by the way did I happen to mention that we're moving... again! We were told just before we got to Calgary that we would be transferring to Golden sometime in the beginning of the new year. We should know something by the end of this week, hopefully! So anyway, we went to Golden and put an offer in on a house there. We looked at 5 different ones and only one of which we would actually be happy living in. It is a 3000sq ft rancher on a full (unfinished) basement on two acres of land just outside of town. The house is only a year old and is super nice!

We spent New years and Dani's fourth birthday in Prince George at our friends place. We bought the kids and ourselves some snowshoes this year and took them out on the 31. Zach is a friggin MACHINE!!! That kid just goes and goes! We headed back up north on the 1. We were home by the 2. It was nice to get home and get back into the swing of things.

I think the kids are really happy to be back home and back into their routine instead of on the road!

Oh ya I guess I should tell everyone the last little bit of our holiday news. WE'RE PREGNANT!!!
Yes you read that right! We are due to have #4 in the beginning of July. I am almost 15 weeks along - we didn't tell anyone till we went home and saw our parents and were able to tell them in person! Chris and I ordered t-shirts to tell them. His says 'MY PREGNANT WIFE SCARES ME!" and mine says "Yes i am pregnant again, YES I know what causes it and NO I don't have too many!!!" My mom just about choked on the mouthful of food she had when she read the shirts! It was a good way to tell everyone!

Anyway gotta go make din din for hungry kids! Talk later.
